Lua Requires Chilkat v10.1.2+

Open Smartcard Certificate Store (or from USB Token)

See more Certificates Examples

Demonstrates how to open the certificate store of the smart card currently in the reader (or the USB token). Iterates over the certs found on the smartcard. Lua

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

local certStore = chilkat.CertStore.new()

-- Access the certificates on the smart card or USB token via the Chilkat certificate store class.
-- Note: Always pass the empty string to OpenSmartcard.

local success = certStore:open_smartcard("")
if not success then
    print(certStore.last_error_text)
    return
end

print(certStore.last_error_text)

-- Iterate over certificates on the smartcard.
local cert = chilkat.Cert.new()
local i = 0
local numCerts = certStore.num_certificates
print("numCerts = " .. numCerts)

while i < numCerts do
    certStore:get_cert(i, cert)
    print(cert.subject_cn)
    print(cert.serial_number)
    if cert:is_rsa() then
        print("key type is RSA")
    end

    if cert:is_ecdsa() then
        print("key type is ECDSA")
    end

    print("has private key: " .. tostring(cert:has_private_key()))
    print("----")
    i = i + 1
end
